It’s not surprising that the number one reason people leave the company they work for is due to a poor or inadequate relationship with their manager.

The Piras Group, a consulting firm out of the San Francisco Bay area, created an interesting concept called The Engagement Cards with the intention of helping build stronger communication and learning between employees and managers.

They’ve created, tested, and measured a new tool for improving employee engagement that’s simple enough for any manager to use with any employee.

By facilitating conversations filled with transparent communication, mutual feedback, learning and of course, engagement, these cards help create a meaningful conversation that leads to a happy productive workforce.
